Busselton Jetty to launch Sustainable Fashion Festival by EFWA (Eco Fashion Week Australia)

December 11, 2023

EFWA2024 will transform a much-loved Western Australian icon into the longest catwalk in the world to present its 4th international festival of eco fashion arts. 

Busselton Jetty will host the first in a month-long series of eco fashion shows, exhibitions, talks and workshops in Busselton and Perth WA.

The heritage-listed jetty is a popular tourist attraction and at 1.8kms, holds the record as the longest jetty in the Southern Hemisphere and the second largest jetty in the world. An end-to-end stroll along the timber-piled extension into Geographe Bay will take about 25 minutes.

EFWA24 will present ‘Closet of the Anthropocene’ to showcase the collections of more than 50 international and Australian designers who source sustainable materials and textiles to create unique pieces.

The event will provide a global stage for designers to present fashion in the new age of the Anthropocene, a term used to describe an epoch shaped by the impact of human activity on climate change.

EFWA founder, curator and visual artist Zuhâl Kuvan-Mills said EFWA was delighted to be partnering with the iconic Busselton Jetty, an award-winning Advanced Eco Tourism operator in Western Australia.

“We are now working together to bring global attention to our concerns surrounding the human impact of climate change, with the stunning backdrop of the jetty becoming a canvas for our fashion artists,” Dr. Kuvan-Mills said. ­

“This timely eco event provides an exciting opportunity for tourism in Western Australia. By organising the launch on Busselton Jetty, we hope to spotlight climate change while utilising sustainable fashion art as a visual language.”
